1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

While nephrocalcinosis (kidney stones) is uncommon in wild teleost fish, various environmental and nutritional factors could lead to its occurrence in aquacultured fish. This study presents the first documented case of kidney stones in aquacultured Brazilian sardine (Sardinella brasiliensis). During necropsy, eighteen hard, white kidney stones were found in the posterior kidney, with an average diameter of 3.71 mm and a total length of 16.8 mm. Morphological analysis revealed stones of different sizes and shapes, including elongated and irregular structures. This discovery enhances our understanding of pathological conditions in S. brasiliensis and underscores the importance of further research into the causes, prevalence and potential implications for fish health and fisheries sustainability.
